Tóm tắt	Molecular Dynamics (MD) is a computational technique that simulates the motion of atoms and molecules by solving Newton's equations of motion under specified forces. Pioneered by Alder and Wainwright in 1957, MD integrates time-dependent atomic trajectories from initial positions, allowing prediction of material properties, phase transitions, and dynamic behavior. It bridges the gap between quantum mechanics (which determines interatomic forces) and macroscopic phenomena (accessible only through experiment), enabling study of timescales from femtoseconds to microseconds and length scales from angstroms to hundreds of nanometers.	Phase-Field Modeling (PFM) is a continuum computational method for simulating microstructure evolution, phase transitions, and interfacial dynamics without explicitly tracking moving boundaries. Developed from Cahn-Ginzburg-Landau theory in the 1950s, PFM represents distinct phases through continuous order parameters that vary smoothly over diffuse interfaces. This approach elegantly handles topological changes (nucleation, coalescence, pinch-off), complex interface geometries, and strongly coupled multiphysics. It is the dominant method for studying dendritic growth, spinodal decomposition, grain evolution, and reactive transport in materials science.	XRD Rietveld Refinement is a method for extracting detailed crystal structure information from powder diffraction data by comparing observed and calculated diffraction patterns through least-squares refinement. Developed by Hugo Rietveld in 1969, this technique enables determination of atomic positions, occupancies, thermal parameters, and phase fractions directly from powder data without requiring single crystals. It is the standard approach in materials characterization for structural analysis, phase identification, and quantification.
